Best: Lamps made from old trophies. This was fun for me and there was a lot of room for creativity with looking for cool trophies all year and lampshades to match the lamps. Then the year after that I made lamps from tiki mugs (without handles), with handmade bamboo shades I put together. Gave them to friends who had not received trophy lamps, went over uber well. But after that I was at a loss.

I didn't do the photoshopping last night, but I have tonight off so I think I can! I think I can!

I remembered the best homemade gift I ever made: in high school, friend & I modified dollar store Barbies to look like each of our friends, made props, etc and stuck them in Barbie-esque boxes with the person's name and interests on the front. This was in the dark ages, before digital cameras, so I have no pictures :( Sigh!
